Nomming into Autumn (Deux)

The second amazing autumnal dish I made was whipped up last night.  The plan was to make it for leftovers so that I could bring healthy lunches to work, but I suspect that the boys will find what I didn't pack and finish it before I get home!



Bean and Chicken Sausage Stew

1 tbs olive oil
1 12-oz package chicken sausage links, chopped into 1in pieces
2 tbs minced garlic
1 19 oz can cannellini beans
2 chicken bullion cubes
1 14.5 oz can diced tomatoes
salt and pepper

Heat the oil in a large saucepan or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the sausage and cook, starting by sealing the ends, until browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook for 2 minutes more.

Add the beans and tomatoes and their liquid along with the bullion cubes and bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Add salt and pepper to season and serve.

(Technically it's supposed to have kale in it, but I couldn't find any in the supermarket.  Feel free to add some, though!)

  1. Love Real Simple recipes - I have one for fennel sausage gratin, which boys also love. Delish!
